Asc Engineered Solutions 8700126405 Black Iron 45 Deg Elbow 2 in

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 8700126405 is a 2-inch, 45-degree malleable black iron elbow, also referred to as a 1/8 bend, used to change pipe direction in threaded piping systems. The flat banded construction and malleable iron material provide the strength and ductility needed for low-pressure steam, gas, and water service lines. This fitting is manufactured to Federal Specification WW-P-521F, with dimensions conforming to ANSI B-16.3 and threaded ends conforming to ANSI B-2.1. Chemical and physical properties meet ASTM A-197 requirements. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in commercial and residential applications where a moderate directional change is needed without a full 90-degree bend.

This 45-degree elbow is suited for use in threaded black iron pipe assemblies commonly found in natural gas distribution, steam heating systems, and general industrial piping runs. The 2-inch pipe size accommodates medium-volume flow paths in both residential and light commercial mechanical systems. It is sold as an individual fitting, making it a practical replacement or project-supply option for service calls and new installations alike.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction meets ASTM A-197 chemical and physical property standards
• 45-degree change of direction (1/8 bend) for gradual pipeline routing
• Flat banded body style for standard clearance in tight mechanical spaces
• Threaded ends conform to ANSI B-2.1 for consistent pipe thread engagement
• Dimensions per ANSI B-16.3 for interchangeability with standard malleable iron fittings
• Meets Federal Specification WW-P-521F

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for 2-inch threaded black iron pipe systems in gas, steam, and water service applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes and the International Fuel Gas Code or International Plumbing Code as required by the system type. Shut off and depressurize the piping system fully before removing or installing any fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium to all male threads before assembly. Do not over-tighten threaded connections, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
